First week of practice

The first week of practice is in the bank.  The team worked hard, and did a great job of transitioning into a tough week of training accompanied by class and school obligations.  Monday, Jason and I ran everyone through some skate agility, which the team then followed up with a fun game of soccer.  Tuesday, we brought the team to some new pavement, where they crushed some threshold skate intervals, and wednesday was a distance double-pole ski.

On Thursday, we decided to hit it hard with some L4 bounding at the notorious Sheep Hill.
